Question

The function f(x) = 582(7)^x represents the growth of a mosquito population every year in a remote swamp. Troy wants to manipulate the formula to an equivalent form that calculates every 2 months, not every year. Which function is correct for Troy's purposes?

52(7^x) but not entirely sure. my brain stopped working.

Answer 4

if x represents one year, and we want it to represent 2 months instead ...

n years = 2 months ?

Answer 5

I don't think so...

Answer 6

1year = 12 months

1/12 year = 1 month

2/12 year = 2 months

1/6 year = 2 months


582 (7)^(1/6) = a1
582 (7)^(2/6) = a2
582 (7)^(3/6) = a3
582 (7)^(4/6) = a4
582 (7)^(5/6) = a5
582 (7)^(6/6) = 1 year

which one of the options gives us the same results?
